The Wisconsin Press Association.

The HERALD was represented at the
recent meeting of the Wisconsin Press
association at Madison. Tile proceed
ings were of great interest to newspaper
men, but not especially so to the general
public. Consequently the HERALD
gave no account of the meeting save a
brief mention. There was, however, one
matter of great interest to us, and we
hope to the many friends of the old
HERALD. 1t was the report of the COM
mittee appointed to award premiums for
the best specimens of job work. The
report was as follows!
PREMIUMS ON PRINTING.

the examination of specimens of print

Some time ago the Royal Baking
Powder Company conceived the idea of
collecting from its patrons, for redis-
tribution among them when printed in
book form, their best and favorite
methods for the preparation of articles
of food of all descriptions. In response
there were furnished a very large num-
Der of practical receipts, from which
were selected the 5000 contained in the
book entitled ''My Favorite Receipt"
The publication was intended originally
for the contributors only, but the collec-
ton proved to be of such remarkable
value that its publishers believing its
circulation would be productive of good
in affording a larger knowledge as to
the practical preparation of real home
cookery in a way to make it most whole
some and appetizing, have issued an
edition for general circulation, which is
sold at cost of production and postage.
"My Favorite Receipt contains form
ulas for the preparation of almost every
known dish in every conceivable way.
These have been classified into depart
ments representing Soups and Broths.
Fish and Shell Fish. Vegetables, Meats.
Stews, Poultry and Game, Eggs, Salads.
Desserts. Breads. Cske, Condiments,
Beverages, Ices, Preserves and Pickles,
Preserved Meats, Canned Vegetables,
ETC., to which copious index is added.
Every branch of the culinary art has
received ample attention. The publi-
cation is one of unusual value. from the
fact that the receipts are thoroughly
tested formulas of genuine home cook
cry. In it each contributor vouches for
the utility of her receipt not only. but
attests that years of experience have
proved it the best way of making the
article named, and signs her name and
address to it as an evidence of its gen.
uineness and her faith in its superiority.

will especially commend them to Amer
lean housekeepers. While cookery of
the very finest and richest, as well as
that of more plain and economical, is
provided for, my Favorite Receipt" is
not, like many of the cook books Of the
day. collection of impracticable, I'M
tried, or foreign formulas. following
which frequently results in failure and
waste of good materials. The con-
tributions are from every part of the
country and give the best experience of
the best cooks for preparing the dishes
peculiar to each locality.

printed and bound. is sent by the Royal
Baking Powder Co.. New York, at the

SUICIDE AT BEETowN. - John ID.
Coombs, an old resident of Beetown
committed suicide yesterday by taking
a large dose OF laudanum. He was a
gunsmith by trade and had also kept
drug store at Muscalonge some years
ago. By an accidental shot he lost an
arm, and since that time has been fee
BILE. and lately unable to gain a living.
1t was decided by the town authorities
to remove him to the county poor house
where they thought he would be
made more comfortable. At first
be was unwilling to go but finally
agreed to accompany the town officers
on the 10th. On Tuesday morning Mr.
Griffin Hickok, chairman of the board
called at his cabin. but saw at once that
something was wrong. DR.. Hartford
was summoned but he was past recov-
cry. The poison was taken at five
o'clock. Mr.. Hickok went for him
about seven and at nine he became IN
conscious. in which state be remained
until Q o'clock Wednesday morning
when he died He was shout sixty
year old aud was brother of j. Allen
Coombs Of Hurricane. He was buried
at Beetown this morning at ten o'clock.
The deceased had been married, his
wife having died two or three years ago.
and he leaves five children. three girls
and two boys. John Hurley of this
city, something over . year ago,
adopted one Of the girls, aged II years.
Mrs. Caleb Taylor, on Boice Greek, has
two of the children. A boy about u
years old, will probably besent to the
state industrial school. The oldest

"Read me something. = "Weil sab
liant reading muffin dat would interest
you" Every well, y said the gentleman,
do you knw that letter. Yes, sab,
know him, but done forgot he
name" This illutrates net the desire
to deceive, bat an appreciation of the
value of education. The moral devel-
cpment of the negro has kept pace with
his intellectual growth. They are I'M
iversally believers in religion, They
are scrupulous in business and are es-
peciallY reliable in matters of law,
making excellent jurors, deciding more
from sense of justice than mercy.
Marriage relations are held in the
greatest sanctity. Under the present
laws they are peers of any in the
nation, They have built school houses.
churches. they send out missionaries
and over two hundred newspapers.
Still they are denied first-class accom-
modations on cars and boats. The In
cident which occurred in Richmond
short time ago, at the meeting of
the Knights of Labor shows what feel
ing exists against them. 1t is said
there must come q race war. 1t will
never come. Schemes have been proposed
for combining the negro race on reserva-
tons. 1t is impracticable In the first
place there is no territory for them, and
if there were they could not be kept
there. 1t would take a white man for
every colored one to keep them on the re
servation. 1t has been proposed to send
them to Liberia. 1t can't be done. They
would never go and they diditwouldc cost
ninety dollars head to get them there
and to transport 100000 people
would take a good large sum, notwith-
standing the enormous surplus in the
treasury. Beside all this, it takes
microscope to detect the color in some
cases and how could you tell whom to
send? The red and yellow races do
not take to our civilization, the negro
does, like duck to water. No, the
black man is here and here to stay.
He owes debt to the land OF his FORE
fathers and the negro has work to do
there, but this debt must be paid, this
work done as an American citizen.
